    Should we be stocking up on these in case there is a no Deal Brexit ?

    Only if there is a no Wheel Brexit. Seems unlikely. :)


    I bought some of the special offer Deluxe Stem Ginger Biscuits from Lidl at the weekend. They are excellent - a bargain at 54p, and probably okay at their usual price. The flavour is very subtle, and I could tolerate a bit more, but I guess they are trying to cater for all tastes.

    I got lucky yesterday - bought some bakery items from Lidl RTC for 20p. Look out for items marked with round green stickers, folks :)

    The ketchup they sell at Aldi is my favourite. Better than Heinz and much cheaper
  • Those Portuguese tarts from Lidl. Oh my! I bought two and they were still warm. Went outside and scoffed them. Went straight back in to buy some more but there were none left. Gutted.
    They are delicious and are 49 pence. I do love a cheap tart.

    I prefer the Lidl one, but both are fine.

    I went in at lunchtime - they were just a few left on the two shelves reserved for them so they are going fast. Btw you were right about the pesto, now seems to be permanently at 69p :)

    My local store has changed its layout so the "imported" baked goods are now quite separate from those baked instore.
